Abstract
A sealing device in which diameter expansion of an inserted first back-up ring is suppressed. The sealing device includes a seal ring mounted in a rectangular mounting groove, the first back-up ring, and a second back-up ring. The first back-up ring has an end surface contacting an opposing-sealing-fluid-side side surface of the mounting groove. The second back-up ring has an end surface contacting the seal ring. A contact surface in an inner peripheral end of second back-up ring is perpendicular to the axis to contact an opposing-sealing-fluid-side side surface of the mounting groove. The inner diameter of the first back-up ring is set to be larger than the outer diameter of the contact surface portion of the second back-up ring, and the outer diameter of the first back-up ring is set to be smaller than the inner diameter of a housing.
